Weigh In/ Opinion Poll

Do you think Daily weigh in's Help or Hender you? What's your opinion? Me, I sometimes think it becomes obssesion with weight but other times find it helpful in the way that if I see I'm gaining I will watch my eating and exercising habits the next day.

Good Afternoon!   Juanita, I agree with you.  I weigh in daily to see where I am at each day, and examine the day before too.  I think it can become obsessive and addictive it you aren't to careful. Beth

I think weighing dail will add so much stress to your life and God knows we are stressed enough without adding any.  I only weigh at the doctors office, I don't even own a set a scales.  I can tell in my clothes if I am doing good or bad. Darlene

Good Morning Juanita.  I weigh on my scales once a month.  I keep the scales buried in the closet, out of sight out of mind.  I take it out on the first of each month and check my weight.  Then it's back to the closet and hidden until the next month.  I'm like Darlene, I can tell in my clothes, and I certainly don't need the added stress.  It makes my leukemia blood levels to get all messed up when I am stressed.  Remember when you weigh it's best in the morning in your birthday suit.  Plus you may have put on water fluids from the night before, so don't good worried if you are 1-5 lbs over from the day before.  You are looking great.  Have a beautiful day. 

I am strange...lol!  I will get into an almost obsessive state where I weigh in the am, the pm, every day...but then I get busy with other things and I forget about it for a week or so at a time.  I like that since I have usually dropped a few pounds by the time I remember to weigh.  I should move my scales out of the bathroom since they are in plain view many times a day!

When I don't care about my weight (when I'm not dieting) I never get on the scales but when I care I weigh every morning after I use the potty. I only have on a nightgown and a pair of socks. It is some thing I have done for 45 years ever since my first diet. I need to know what is happening so I can bear down if I need to. I have never gained 5 lbs overnigh****er or other wise. I do know when I am retaining water which is happening now that it is so hot in the cold months I never retain.                                                         LOL Lee Lee
